Jack and Jill (DVD, 2012)

As the movie begins, Jack is embarrassed by his twin sister Jill. Yes, Jill is uncouth, rude, and obnoxious, but Jack is so cruel to her, and makes so many jokes at her expense, that I almost stopped watching in disgust. I'm glad I stuck with it, because by the end I was teary-eyed when Jack realizes how much he loves his sister. Yes, Jack starts out being a jerk, but he --- and the viewer --- learn that it's not OK to make fun of someone who may be socially inept and physically unattractive. Some viewers may be offended by jokes that target Mexicans and the elderly. There are also many jokes about sweating, farting, and using the toilet. If this type of humor bothers you, you probably won't enjoy ANY Adam Sandler movie. Sandler looks convincing as Jill, who is supposed to be 43 and awkward. Believe me, I've seen MANY 43-year-old women who were heavier and less attractive than Jill. At times "she" looks very pretty. But the voice didn't work for me. Strangely, Sandler's natural voice was softer and more feminine than the loud bellow he adopted for Jill.

Great array of big stars in this cast, but overall not Adam Sandler's finest work. I've loved several other movies where men dress as women- Big Momma's House, White Chicks, etc...but I don't think Adam pulls off the part that well. I absolutely couldn't stand his "Jill" voice. That being said, I do have to admit that it made me laugh alot and was actually really funny in some parts. So I'm giving it a "3". Funny movie to watch as a family- I watched it with my teenage sons and we all had a good time.

Adam Sandler plays both roles as Jack and Jill, supposedly identical (?) twins. Jack is successful, married, and has two children, whereas Jill is needy, clingy, and overall a mess. It is Thanksgiving Holiday and he goes to the airport to pick her up. It all starts there. . . This film has a good cast with Sandler, Al Pacino, and Katy Holmes, but it all stops there! Aside from the actors, this film is a total "ZERO"! It is stupid, boring, and a total waste of time. I can't imagine anyone truly enjoying this piece of trash.

I am currently waiting for my shipment for the DVD of Jack and Jill. However I have seen this movie once before, and I must say it is a must have for any collection. Adam Sandler can play any part he is given, and this movie portrays that. I can guarantee you will love this movie 100%

It's a great movie, I recommend it to all the family. The picture and sound quality are very good. One laughs from start to finish.
